As far as I can tell Ethereum is for building things (at least ephemeral things) and Solana is for gambling. Gambling is already a huge and verified popular pastime.

Recall the banker in Atlas, born Michael Mulligan, who is also the richest man in the country. A newspaper says his investing prowess is akin to the mythical King Midas, for everything he touches turns to gold. “It’s because I know what to touch,” says Mulligan. Liking the name Midas, he adopts it. An economist derides him as a mere gambler. Mulligan replies: “The reason why you’ll never get rich is because you think what I do is gambling” (p. 295).
